Grrrrrr
It really makes me angry when business owners take advantage of young people like that.
When I met husband, he was working at small shop. The owners, long time friends of his family, gave him the title of "manager" and then worked him 45, or (usually) more, hours per week to get out of paying him overtime. Of course, he, nor I, knew the law. In order for a position to be exempt from overtime, 80 percent of its duties have to be administrative. Or, at least, at the time that is what it was in California.
His job was ZERO percent administrative.
Unfortunately, difficult child is the one who has to quit, or take other action. It's so hard to see our kids being taken advantage of.
